Re: Anyone negotiate price on a 2008?
Id take the H3 Alpha in a hearbeat, just what kills me about it, is how it comes stock with the stupid chrome! but the v-8 is totally worth it. Im also not a big fan of the new front bumpber, but again worth it!

That bling was one of my problems with it also. But the big killer was the automatic. Where's the love for the manual transmission!? I forget what I had the price to, I know it was under 40k, just can't remember if it was 39k or 36k.

Re: Anyone negotiate price on a 2008?
They were willing to deal. Once they knew I was serious about it, I got a better trade-in number on the H2 and they knocked a suitable amount more off the MSRP. So I pick up my new H3 today.

Re: Anyone negotiate price on a 2008?
Pricing has been talked about alot, but its fun to continue...
First, never talk about list or MSRP. Never let it past your lips or the salespersons. If they say it just remind them in good taste to please not use that term...
Start your offer at "FACTORY DEALER COST" minus the transportation cost, any programs or rebates and minus the 3% factory rebate (holdback) from GM to dealers. OH also if that dealer is part of an advertising coop, deduct the advertising money. You should be able to look this up on the internet. As far as I know that is the BOTTOM LINE...KBB or other sites
DO NOT start pricing any dealer add ons at this point or mention a trade.
If possible I try and get the on duty sales manager involved right away.
If you live in BFE its better to go to a large city that has more then 1 dealer.
Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays during the day time are the best days and time. NEVER NEVER on the Weekend. Three to five days from the end of the month AND close to the end of their quarter.
I'm 60 and bought my first vehicle when i was 17 and the only Car/Truck/SUV that I ever paid more then factory invoice for was a 1964 1/2 Mustang.
After you make your best deal then you can talk about dealer add on's and trades... Then you will know the REAL value of those add ons and trade
